<<<3 days later >>>
The next four days went by without any trouble and they were boring as hell. They weren't allowed to leave the tower until the end of second phase of the chunnin exams. During these four days a few more teams arrived to the tower.
Every competitor was summoned to the arena and filled it facing the hokage. The arena room was pretty much empty. The room had a giant statue with a shinobi doing the ram hand seal. There were two balconies, one in each side of the room for the spectators. Behind the statue was a big electric board.
"First I must congratulate you all for passing the second round of the chunnin exams" Minato said and a few smirked thinking they were the worst was over
"Now t-" he started but was interrupted by another shinobi.
"Do you mind if I continue Hokage-sama?" - said shinobi asked and the hokage shook his head.
"My name is Gekko Hayate and I'm the proctor of this part of chunnin exams" - Hayate said. He had short brown hair and dark markings under his eyes. Even though he was a young man, he had pronounced lines under his eyes, He wore the standard Konoha shinobi outfit complete with a forehead protector that he wore as a bandanna, flak jacket and regular shinobi sandals. He also carried a katana with a rectangular hand guard strapped over his back.
"Before we can proceed we will need to have preliminary matches" - Hayate said and the gennins began to yell in anger.
"What do you mean by preliminary matches?" - Kiba asked.
"We didn't expect this many people to pass the exam so we have to thin out the contestants. During the third phase of the exam many nobles will assists the matches and their time is precious to not be unnecessarily wasted." - Hayate explained and a few were against it.
"Why should we risk our lives for this?" - Someone yelled.
"I think you misunderstand the meaning of the chunnin exams" - the hokage said and everyone turned to face him.
"The chunnin exams are used to promote promising gennins to chunnin however there is somewhat of an underlying objective. The chunnin exams are a substitute for war and to prove that the country that is competing is strong. The strength of a village is the strength of their shinobi and the strength of their shinobi only flourishes in life and death battles" Minato explained.
"By having shinobi compete in the chunnin exams the country can prove their strength which will award them a higher number of missions bringing more wealth to the village" he concluded.
"Before we begin is there anyone who wishes to forfeit?" - Hayate asked, Kabuto raises his hand and said that he forfeits and is allowed to leave
"we shall begin now. The match ends by either knock out, death or impairment. If I declare the winner the match ends immediately understood?" - Hayate said eyeing them seriously and everyone nodded.
"The names will appear on that electric board randomly" - Hayate explained as the board started shuffling through names.
Uchiha Sasuke VS Yoroi Akadō
"Will Uchiha Sasuke and Yoroi Akadō step forward the rest of you please go to the balconies" - Hayate said as all except yoroi and Sasuke left for the balconies
"Good luck Sasuke" - Sakura said to the Uchiha "thanks Sakura" Sasuke's said smiling "don't go losing this match Sasuke, I wanna face you in the finals" Naruto said smirking "no problem" Sasuke replied smirking also
